It has been announced that former PRIDE play-by-play announcer Mauro Ranallo has been signed to commentate for the newly formed Hardcore Championship Fighting.

“I have worked with Mauro for the past 8 years. Having him head up our broadcast team guarantees our spot amongst the world’s elite productions,” said HCF CEO Keith Crawford. “There really isn’t anything he can’t do when it comes to announcing.”

It has been a busy year for Ranallo. In August he signed with ‘The Fight Network’ and he will be the network’s lead news anchor for a Sportscenter-type of show which will start later this year. Then in early November it was announced that Ranallo resigned from Pride Fighting Championships due to difficulties he had with the American producer, Jerry Millen.
